 This assignment felt sort of tedious, but was great practice for shooting in manual because we couldn't take multiple shots to trial and error.  It felt like shooting film because every shot counted.  After about twenty five, my pictures got increasingly uncreative and...lame.

I think the lighting in my original pictures was pretty good, so I did not have to do much in Lightroom.  I am bored with these pictures though...I did not do a good job of capturing emotion.  They could also be much more unique, although I think my "Rice on Glass" was the best in that aspect.  I should have ventured more outdoors, instead of getting all my subjects from the kitchen!
